    TBAC Magnus RR use without brake?

    It's probably the biggest ELR cartridge you can fit in an AI AXSR. Sam shot it at the KRG ELR and came in 16th, and we had a couple other guys shooting it also on another gun. These were factory AXSR's with just a new barrel fitted, shooting factory RUAG FMJ.

    TBAC Magnus RR use without brake?

    If you are contemplating that, I might steer you towards a regular Magnus. Kind of like the "K" cans, the RR cans are for fairly specific applications, that are mostly encapsulated in these categories: hunting rifles (esp. magnums), ELR cartridges (.375 SwissP and smaller) from big guns, and...

    Suppressors Input on Suppressor for 357 lever gun & PCC

    Another option is to run a .375cal "rifle" suppressor. We've used the Magnus-375 on 9mm PCC's extensively and it's very quiet. Still rated for .338LM and 375 Swiss P also.

    TBAC new Magnus and 338 Ultra Gen2 release dates?

    We've been shipping Magnus-S-RR and 338 Ultra RR's since about July. There are more Magnus-S-RR going out to "a large dealer" today or tomorrow, and the next 338 Ultra RR's are shipping in the next about week. After that, the next Magnus-S-RR's would be 4-6 weeks out, and the next 338 Ultra...

    Suppressors New TBAC cans for 2024

    We are shipping stuff continuously to dealers, so the pipeline is full and being delivered on. Demand just got kind of crazy in 2024. This means it will be much much faster to get a can from a dealer who submits regular orders and has what you want either in stock, incoming, or in the queue...

    Strongly recommend against using a booster w/ spring on PCC.

    Side Mounted WMLRF

    Hi, It's been a while since I messed with those guns but I probably did this: dialed scope back to 100 (my "LRF offset co-zero"), aimed the gun (ie the scope crosshairs) at a definite/precise object at a distance, and then dialed the red dot zero to the same point . On the gun, this meant the...

    Suppressors Thunder Beast Fly 9 V Fly 45 on Zev 9mm

    It's built stronger since one of its design goals was .45-70. The fly9 was made to be as light as possible

    Side Mounted WMLRF

    I just measured the actual offset in inches vert. and horiz. and then did a true parallel zero, and then verified at distance. The primary was done around 40 yards and when I verified at distance it was dead on. Even if you get a co-witnessed (ie not parallel) zero at 1000, you won't have...

    Side Mounted WMLRF

    Eh, not really an issue

    Side Mounted WMLRF

    Ah, well, you get a parallel/offset zero on the LRF using your scope reticle dialed back to 0, and then as a second step, you can co-zero your red dot to the scope optically.

    Side Mounted WMLRF

    I think one gun had a Spuhr mount and the other had an M-BRACE (American Rifle Co), both with the correct adapters to put things in the correct positions. Everything was mounted to the unified scope mounts.

    Side Mounted WMLRF

    I'll elaborate a little bit. I ran these on a pair of SPR-style gas guns for a class (we did shoot to about 850 so we actually had to range, LOL). Two reasons-- first, I like to have a small red dot above the scope at the 12'o'clock position, and two, with the Vortex on the left-hand side, I...
